Abstract
This article provides a reflection on the rights of minors after the New York Convention of 1989 and its entry into force. The international legal system, as well as the European one, recognizes important rights of minors, guaranteeing them an increasing autonomy in accordance with their ability to evolve. The primary aspect of the Convention is constituted by the superior principle of the child, which must be taken into account first and foremost in any situation involving minors, and not only in proceedings concerning them. After a reflective argumentation, the paper concludes with the hope that new educational policies will be devised among EU states that would be able to develop strategies so that every minor, without exceptions, can exercise their right to citizenship.
